Cramp Bark (Viburnum opulus) is a dried, food-grade botanical valued in traditional herbal practice for its calming, antispasmodic character. With a mild, woody profile, it integrates easily into decoctions and blends for everyday herbal routines. Herbalists have long turned to it during times of muscular tension, especially around the monthly cycle. It's also a classic option in blends intended for general lower back and leg comfort. Naturally vegan and minimally processed, it's a dependable staple for home herbal crafting.
♡ Why we love it: It's a time-honoured "soother" that complements many relaxation-focused blends without overpowering flavour. The bark's balanced profile makes it simple to brew and easy to combine with companion herbs. We appreciate its versatility for both internal decoctions and external preparations.
